STIC - Health Care

The STIC workshops are designed to be used in a classroom setting. The information included can assist individuals to learn more about their occupation in a Canadian context, including licensing/certification requirements and labour market conditions. They also learn the terminology of their occupation as it is used at work, in job advertisements, and in testing/licensure.

The workshop is sector-specific, does not depend upon the availability of computer facilities for participants and is intended for use by regulatory bodies, community groups and other organizations that wish to provide an introduction to the health care profession.
